About the role
We're building the automation, orchestration, and monitoring layer that unifies our virtualization and end-user computing estate into a single, software-managed platform. You'll own the definition, design, implementation, and execution of the infrastructure that our business runs on — spanning on-premises virtualization, cloud, and virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI/HVD) across every stage from architecture through production operations.
Responsibilities
- Own the design and implementation of our virtualization platforms (VMware ESXi, Nutanix) from planning through deployment, including capacity, performance, and lifecycle.
- Own the VDI/HVD estate end to end across AWS WorkSpaces, Omnissa Horizon, and Microsoft Windows 365 / Azure Virtual Desktop — architecture, provisioning, image management, and tuning.
- Build the automation and monitoring stack that provisions, patches, and manages infrastructure at scale, eliminating manual effort and configuration drift.
- Own hands-on Windows Server administration, and support Linux workloads as part of a mixed estate.
- Own resilient networking and cloud connectivity for infrastructure and desktop workloads (routing, DNS, load balancing, secure remote access).
- Turn early technical groundwork into functioning, deployed systems — and take them to production scale.
- Assist in managing on-premise datacenters
- Run technical projects independently: migrations, platform rollouts, and modernization efforts from design through cutover.
- Interface with internal teams and external vendors, and manage third-party vendors on provisioning, maintenance, and break-fix support.
- Own the documentation, standards, runbooks, and security hardening that keep the platform reliable and auditable.
Requirements
- You’re a strong infrastructure engineer who thinks automation-first and can own the implementation details end to end.
- You’re as comfortable designing the platform as you are troubleshooting it live, and you’d rather script a task once than do it by hand ten times.
- If virtualization and end-user computing is your jam and you’ve built and run systems in production, we want to talk.
Qualifications
- 7+ years of infrastructure engineering experience with strong systems-level technical judgment.
- Proven expertise in virtualization: VMware ESXi and Nutanix.
- Strong hands-on Windows Server administration, with working knowledge of Linux, networking, and cloud (AWS and/or Azure).
- Demonstrated VDI/HVD experience with one or more of: AWS WorkSpaces, Omnissa Horizon, Microsoft Windows 365 / Azure Virtual Desktop.
- An automation-first mindset — you build repeatable processes and tooling by default (e.g. PowerShell, Python, plus config management / IaC such as Ansible or Terraform).
- A track record of owning technical projects and driving them to completion at production scale.
- Observability instincts: monitoring, alerting, and troubleshooting distributed environments.
- Strong communication — you ship fast, you explain clearly, and you move easily between design-level discussion and hands-on execution.
Skills
- Relevant certifications (VMware / Omnissa, Nutanix NCP, Microsoft, or AWS).
- Application virtualization and image / gold-build management (e.g. App Volumes, FSLogix).
- Infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD experience for delivering and managing infrastructure.
- Storage (SAN / NAS), backup, and disaster recovery design and operations.
- Experience using AI-assisted tooling to accelerate automation, scripting, and troubleshooting.
